Page 24 of Fate
We both looked over.
A tall man with that dazzling familiar smile stood there.
“Legend!” I greeted him with a handshake. He had been with our MC for about ten years. Our dad had helped to pay for his education and got him a scholarship as well. He became a physician and then he insisted on being Requiem MC’s doctor.
Smiling at me, he nodded. “So road trip it is. I even brought my Harley.”
I chuckled and motioned my head at the Rebel Saint President. “Do you know Bones?”
Legend nodded. “Yeah, we met. There’s no one better to guard us.”
Bones chuckled. “I got my men Smoke and Ink coming with us. So yeah, you will have the best.”
“When do we leave?” I asked him.
“In the morning,” Bones replied. “So, if you will inform your girl, I would appreciate it.”
“His girl?” Legend asked in surprise as he looked over at me. “I didn’t know you had one.”
I chuckled and shook my head. “She’s not mine yet.”
Both men stared at me.
Bones laughed. “Yet, huh?”
I nodded. “It will happen.” Once I said it aloud, it felt good, sort of empowering. I then looked over at my friend, Legend. “Some things are just meant to be, no matter how much a person might deny it.” I was well aware of Legend and Glory. He refused to admit to it, but sometimes you couldn’t completely hide how you feel about someone. Most of my brothers were aware of it. Glory had been more than obvious about how she felt. Now that I had found the woman I felt should be mine, I refused to hide from it, I guess. Life was too short to fuck around.
Staring at me, Legend shook his head.
Bones looked between us then shrugged. “So, we leave at 10 am. See you then.” He turned to walk away.
“Wait,” I called to him. “Where are we going?”
Turning back, he said, “Texas. Liberty knows all about it. I just talked to him.”
I felt surprised as this was news to me. I never figured on going home to hide out.
“Texas?” a female voice asked.
We all looked over at Briget.
“Yes,” Bones replied with a shrug of his shoulders.
She looked upset as she asked him, “Why would we leave the state?”
“You need to talk to Liberty,” Bones told her as he shook his head. “He’s the one who brought it up to Talon. I just got instructions on who and where. Not the why. Sorry.” Turning away, he headed down the hallway.
“Ok, so I need to talk to Liberty,” Briget grumbled.
“Let’s all go and talk to him,” I suggested.
She scowled at me.
Laughing, I said, “Oh, come on. Don’t look at me like that.”
Legend nodded. “Seems like every female is pissed off today.”
I looked over at him. “Oh? So, who cussed you out?”
